Sangheili (Elites) In New Trilogy Matchmaking (Part 1)

> Hey guys quick random thought what do you guys think about “The Unnamed” for a Sangheili clan name? My thinking is that it would be a black ops organization formerly of the Covenant that now works for the Arbiter.

That doesn’t really sound elite-ish if you know what I mean. Perhaps “The Nameless” or the “Without Name” would work better?

If you’re getting a clan going i’m in. I would love to get back into a Sangheili Clan again.

Fraid not I would make a horrible clan leader and I have been busy lately so I haven’t had much time for Halo. The idea for the name comes from some stupid ideas I had for fan fic but I really liked the name so I guess I wanted to see if anyone else did.

Truth be told, i never wanted you to be leader. I’m sort of President and General type guy. I just need a willing amount of people and i can bring the Pheniox from the ashes.

I did it with the GT CLAN, RTS and The Mandalorian Clan.

haven’t ben here in awhile. I do hope to se Elites in halo 5.

Truth be told I would probably only join a clan if that was the only way I could get a game in Reach assuming 343 repeats their mistake for whatever the next Halo is. Normally I am a lone wolf, I actually don’t know how the clan system works or how you start a clan.

If Microsoft or 343i says anything about Sangheili being in Halo 5,lets just all take it with a pinch of salt.Concerning Halo 5,Microsoft has been saying this but meaning that.I was watching one of Halo 5 Follower’s videos to get news and for the first time I can say I am fairly concerned about our existence in the next Halo.Lets keep our expectations low so that we can have maximum satisfaction,if any,about Sangheili being in Halo 5.

If they aren’t in the next one then as far as I am concerned Halo is dead!

Not really, elite fans are a minority to spartan fans as Infinity fans are a minority to Classic fans. Doesn’t mean that their voices don’t matter, but it’s a fact.

But it would suck. A lot. A whole lot even. If elites didn’t return next game as playable characters.

I guess that means I am a minority when it comes to everything Halo as I like Reach’s multiplayer (not Infinity), elites, and ODST. All these I would miss do miss and without them Halo just wouldn’t be Halo for me.

Don’t trust Halo 5 Follower.

That guy is just ridiculous and so many people believe the false things he says.

OT, I’m sure 343 won’t make that mistake (and many others) this time around.

If elites, Reach multiplayer, and ODST are all you care about in Halo, then I guess you are. I don’t mean my statement that people who prefer those things are a minority in any malicious way, I’m just stating a semi-unfortunate fact. In fact, as an Infinity Multiplayer fan and an elite fan, I know exactly what being the minority can be like.

Halo Follower just covers a topic too quickly before he gets enough information to be 100% valid. I usually wait a day or two after he covers “news” about (for example) the next Halo and there’s usually an update video concerning that topic that actually states real facts or where he corrects himself.

He’s a good source of info, imo, but not something I’d base any more than 50% reliance on. I do like how he gathers opinions from fans about what they want in the next Halo a lot.

Anyways, what do you guys think about elite assassinations in the next Halo? Since the elites in Halo 4 don’t seem to have a knife of any sort like they did in Reach, do you think they should carry a plasma blade of sorts or be given those wrist emitters again?

They could be equipped with plasma deflectors like those found on Skirmishers,or have like a mechanic where there’s this aesthetic slot on their arm guards.During an assassination,out would come a long plasma blade,twice as long as the dagger.Heck,if 343i will,perhaps give us customizable energy blades for assassinations,so we could have it in several different forms.Such as the traditional dagger,a longsword,rapier,etc.Or maybe 343i could create an entirely new form in addition.I hope we see more work being put into in Sangheili armour,and include energy staves as a new that could create a plasma discharge which would kill enemies.And give the stave a slightly longer range than the Energy Sword,and even if the target was not hit directly by the stave,if he is in the plasma discharge range he’d be killed.When slammed against the ground it would release this aesthetic effect similar to when our shields drop.That’d be excellent if 343i could do so.

Good ideas, everyone. How about the Covenant deploying from their drop pods (at everyone’s first spawn) in certain matchmaking modes?

That would be nice, provided the Spartans could too. Or make Elite and ODST drop pods be a spawnable object on the map, similar to the ordnance drops. Even if you don’t include Machinima or forge art uses, it’d be pretty BA.

But having elites back would make the game feel a LOT better. Especially with a playlist that, unlike Reach, would allow you to be a Spartan ALONGSIDE an elite, instead of just customs. I’m not ussually an elite player myself most of the time, but I do like fighting alongside my alien friends (And former enemies).

Besides, if 343i decides to go armor crazy again, they have the elites to try some designs. And unlike spartan armors, they’d look GOOD.

Note; And sorry if I sound condescending in that last part, I’m actually being sincere. A lot of the Halo 4 armors (Like FOTUS) would look better in a elite-ized format.

I have a lot experience with clan leadership as well. But really, this clan would sound more like a sangheili praising group rather than one getting into affairs with clans such as BTF, the Eminence, Navcom, or UUF. So leadership is really not required for this. And plus, if we did have a clan leader, then the clan would be very dependent on said person, and if he/she were gone offline for too long, then the clan would fall apart. I’ve seen it happen too many times.

But anyways, it’s been awhile since I’ve been here, we’re getting kinda close to 400 now. And that drop pod idea sounds sweet!

So anyone feel elites should have skins for their armor that include various religious/battle glyphs and symbols? I think it would really emphasize the sangheili culture.

2 to go until ODST-Iron.

They aren’t all I care about but they are important and I know you didn’t mean to be malicious.
